PROJECT HEALTH CHECK AUDIT

Project Health Check: A Proactive Approach to Project Success

At Efficore, we understand that large-scale construction projects are complex and dynamic, often facing a variety of challenges that can affect timelines, budgets, and overall success. Our Project Health Check service offers a comprehensive review of your project’s current status, identifying any areas of concern and providing actionable solutions to get your project back on track.

The Project Health Check is designed as a deep dive audit, not to assign blame but to help identify the root causes of issues and to implement positive, corrective measures. Whether your project is falling behind schedule, encountering design submission delays, or facing commercial obstacles, our goal is to provide you with a clear understanding of where things stand and how to resolve any issues in a constructive and forward-thinking manner. We can do this when there is a problem in a reactive way or simply as an ongoing proactive maintenance tool throughout the Project to ensure the best chance of success.

What We Do

Our Project Health Check service includes a detailed assessment of various critical aspects of your project, including:

Reviewing Current Project Status
We start by performing a thorough review of your project’s current state, including its timeline, key milestones, and progress against the agreed schedule. Our team evaluates the completion of deliverables, compares them to the project plan, and identifies any deviations that may indicate delays or risks. This review helps us establish a clear picture of where your project stands, and more importantly, why it may not be progressing as planned.
Identifying Risks and Obstacles
Every project faces risks, whether they are related to external factors, such as weather or supply chain issues, or internal factors, such as design challenges or resource constraints. Our team works closely with you to identify any risks that could be impacting the project’s success, including both current and potential future risks. By understanding the underlying causes of delays, budget overruns, or performance issues, we can develop a strategy to mitigate or eliminate these risks moving forward.
Understanding Design and Submission Issues
Delays in design submissions or approval processes can have a significant impact on a project’s schedule. Efficore’s experts assess any difficulties in design submissions, approvals, or revisions that may be causing delays or frustration. We work with your design team to identify where bottlenecks may exist, whether it’s related to communication with the client, review processes, or the adequacy of the designs themselves. We then provide practical advice on how to streamline these processes and ensure that designs are submitted on time and meet client expectations.
Addressing Commercial and Financial Obstacles
Commercial issues are often a major contributor to project delays and disputes. Whether it’s cost overruns, contractual disagreements, or resource allocation challenges, Efficore’s Project Health Check focuses on identifying any financial or commercial obstacles hindering your project’s progress. We help you assess the effectiveness of current contracts, evaluate payment terms, and provide recommendations for cost management. Our aim is to resolve commercial obstacles and create a clearer path forward for budget control and financial sustainability.
Providing Comprehensive Advice and Planning
The core of the Project Health Check is to provide you with practical, actionable advice to resolve any issues identified during the review. We don’t just diagnose the problems; we help you implement corrective actions that will get your project back on track. Our team works with you to refine timelines, adjust resources, streamline processes, and develop strategies to overcome challenges. With our expert guidance, you’ll gain clarity on what needs to be done to restore the project to a successful trajectory.
